SuDS and Flood Defence

Regeneration of the site presented an exceptional challenge, creating a sustainable, employment-led, mixed-use development, whilst minimising the transport impacts in an area adjacent to the town centre already subjected to considerable peak period congestion. The site is heavily contaminated and adjacent to the River Ouse which has a history of flooding. As well as providing flood risk, flood defence & drainage advice we also worked closely with the Town Council and ESCC in developing innovative highway improvement works within and beyond the site.
